INTEGRA reports on a new technical note produced by Analytik Jena (www.analytik-jena.de/en.html) that compares the performance of the INTEGRA VOYAGER adjustable tip spacing multichannel pipette with a manual single channel pipette for performing real-time PCR experiments.

As reaction components for real-time PCR experiments come in a range of different labware formats, scientists traditionally have used single channel pipettes to prepare the reaction mixes. Unfortunately preparing and transferring samples one by one is not only error prone but also very time consuming.

In this technical note the authors compare the results from using an 8-channel VOYAGER pipette and a conventional single channel pipette to prepare eight samples of extracted human gDNA in twelve replicates for real-time PCR. Real-Time amplification of the SRY-gene was performed by using innuMIX qPCR MasterMix SyGreen and qTOWER3 system.

In undertaking these experiments, Analytik Jena researchers found that the unique electronically adjustable tip facility on the VOYAGER ...
